"Hey, are you okay?"
I love my husband so much that I always want to make sure he is
breathing. Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and I don't hear him breathing right away so I say to him, "Hey, are you okay?". He used to be very nice about it and would respond, "Yes honey I am fine."
Last night was one of those nights where I couldn't fall asleep
and wanted to make sure my husband was breathing so I shouted really
loud, "Hey are you okay?" He was sound asleep and responded with a soft "shhhhh".
I thought that his answer was too weak so I said, "Hey be careful." He answered back loudly, "Be careful? I am not crossing a road here."
I laughed. The room got very silent again, but a few minutes later I had to know,"Hey, are you okay?"

You're like Shirley Maclaine in "Terms of Endearment" where she kept waking up her baby daughter (sometimes by pinching her) just to make sure she was still alive!

You remind me of my ex-girlfriend when we would go for trips together last time. I have a slight breathing problem that she knows about so when she can't sleep, she would bug me every 30 seconds to check if I'm okay and the shisha didn't affect me. Once I got fed up, so I told her "please buzz off and go hug a teady bear or something". I get really grumpy when someone disturbs me in my sleep. She got pissed and I had to spend all night apologizing... Sheeeesh some girls are just too much drama and really sensitive... LOL =P

HAHAHHAHAH! I love this! Now I don't feel so weird...coz when everyone in the house is asleep and I still can't, I take a walk around the house and walk into their rooms and make sure they're breathing. My dad and brother are easy, they snore. My mom i have to sneak up to her and stick my ear in her face. My little brother i keep shaking and shaking until he slaps at me in his sleep - he sleeps so deeply it scares me. You are the cutest thing EVER ya Leilouta! WALLAH!

The last time my girlfriend asked me that question at 2am while I was in deep sleep, she wanted sex. I satisfied her needs (and mine)and we both went to sleep.
Correct me if I'm wrong, sex for women is like a sleeping pill without the side effects (or is it?!)

Leilouta, you really are too funny!
I was born early and when they took me home, I slept with my parents. During the night my mother would check on my periodically by holding her hand over my face to feel my breath.
I think if you did that to your poor patient husband, it would be much kinder. You could know without waking him up.

olivia, what your parents did is understandable.
My son was born premature at 25 weeks & that's why I did it.

Our first was not born premature, but I checked his breath "often" that first night, and for "several" nights thereafter. Ultimately, I realized that our son needed a father who had received the benefit of a full night's sleep and was gainfully employed more than he needed his breath checked.
Delightful post.

Chris - really! I was 27 weeks, but my friend (our mums met in hospital) was 25 weeks, and boys have more problems, they say. He is severely deaf.

Gosh, wait till you have a newborn baby. You will start waking up several times a night just to check if the baby is still breathing.

mon chéri, il suffit qu'il arrête de ronfler pour que je commence à m'inquiéter, chose qui n'est jamais arrivée.
Par contre lui, il suffit que je me mets debout pour aller aux toilettes ou chercher à boire, il se réveille en sursaut,avec un air effrayé :
"shfamma, are you ok?"
"habibi, I'm ok, arja3 or9ed"
"no tell me, shfamma"
"ma fama shay, je vais faire pipi"
"ok I was afraid, arja3 fisa3 please"
Cet échange a lieu chaque fois que je me réveille au milieu de la nuit, parfois 2fois la même nuit, les mêmes questions et les mêmes réponses à un mot près?
Selon mon humeur, je le trouve attendrissant, amusant ou parfois énervant.
